The Light Calls the Monster Family
The sun is up, and with it comes the old fear: that if anyone sees the real you, they will run. You believe your heart is a monster waiting to devour the people you love.
But look at the dawn. The light did not wait for you to be safe before it arrived.
It came anyway. There was a man once who carried a darkness so violent it shattered chains and scared entire towns, yet the light looked at him and said, 'Go home to your own people and tell them how much the Lord has done for you.' Your history is not your destiny.
The thing you fear most about yourself is not the final truth. The light sees the monster and calls it family.
